Breitling Avenger A17318101B1X1

The case measures 43mm across and 12.28mm thick, with a 22mm lug width. Case material: Stainless steel. Case size alone is a poor guide to how a watch wears; lug-to-lug length and how the bracelet drops off the case matter more, which is why we suggest trying one on before you commit.

Automatic, Breitling Cal. 17 (ETA/Sellita base), COSC chronometer. Power reserve is 38 hours. It beats at 28,800 vph.

It is rated to 300 meters, about 984 feet. That is a diving rating: it is built for scuba use, not just for getting wet. One caution that applies to every watch on this page: a water resistance figure describes a new watch with fresh gaskets. On a piece that is years past its last service, treat the rating as unknown until it has been pressure tested.

Breitling produced this reference from 2019 to the present day. Production years matter when you are valuing one, because dial, bezel and bracelet details often changed inside a single reference run.
